Coast Bluff

Gallery: Man & NaturePosted May 18, 2011113 views4 comments

Shot with a Canon 30D. f13, 1/250. This was shot at dawn on Bodega Bay on the Northern California coast. It was very cold and the sun very bright. I had to tone down some highlights just above the silouette, and added a bit of cloud on the upper right to cover a weird-looking patch of sky.
I just downloaded a 15-day trial test of SilverEfex and this is my first try at B&W conversion with it so it may be somewhat shaky.
Any comments welcome.

I'm not so sure about this one Lucy. Looks like a house in the middle, which would make this more MN than landscape, and the clone work in the upper right corner is quite obvious as you have duplicated sections.

Those do look like interesting clouds though, would be curious to see what they looked like in color.

You're absolutely right Nicolaus. Should've gone in Man and Nature. Apologies!

Lucy--On the thumbnail page you can choose the "Edit" link below your picture and choose a new gallery from the drop-down menu. This looks like it might be interesting in color too.

Thanks so much Tony. I was kind of wondering about that. Will do.
